Here are some of my recipes, that are fairly easy to make, and are not too costly either, for those that are watching there budget. These are all summer based. Feel free to change the amounts to your liking, most of it is a rough guess because I don't use measurements that often.

Yummy Tuna/chicken salad
   1/2 medium tomato diced
   1/4c onion diced (whatever onion you prefer works)
   1 stalk of celery diced
   1 can of tuna drained
   1/8c mustard
   1/3-1/2c mayo
   1/4 c sweet relish
   10 baby carrots diced
   1/4t garlic salt
   1/4t lemon pepper
Mix all ingredients in a medium bowl, and my favorite bread to serve it with garlic bread, generally I have it was regular saltine crackers, or white bread.

Yummy Trail Mix
   1 box of honey nut cheerios
   1-2 cans of mixed nuts (16oz total)
   1 bag of butter pretzels broken into bits
   2 bags of mixed dried fruit
   2 bags of yogurt covered raisins
   1 bag of cherries
   1 bag semisweet chocolate chips
   1 bag andes mints baking bits
   1 bag peanut butter chips
Mix this all together in big bowl and cover, try to put in a place that doesn't get to hot or too cold.  


Hope that you enjoy these recipes, and all of you out there that are looking for cooler meals to make during this extremely hot summer.
